I never cease to be amazed and surprised by the scope of possibilities in perfumery,
possibilities of creation are infinte, there is no limit.
Here is blank page, for you to fill with emotions. Here is a bottle, in which I slip memories of my trips,
be it someone I met or a summer day in Madagascar...
When I think up a fragrance, I think of it like a recipe, and perfumery is just that: a mix of ingredients.
One natural ingredient, one prime raw material, vanilla for instance, I will try and coat it, build around it.
Or sometimes just a tone, a fruity note, which you trim and adorn,
by adding other ingredients, other tones, as you put together the formula.
Many attempts are required, you need to try out various doses of the ingredients,
then evaluate the blend, see if the idea is right.
And when you feel even a little something happening, then you know you have hit the right tone.
